The City has opened a permanent yard waste depot available to residents daily, free of charge, from spring to the end of fall.

  • May 7 and 8, 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. (weather dependent)
  • Site located west of the Yard Waste Depot entrance on Fleet St (view map)

Guidelines:

  • This is a self-serve depot. 
  • Bring your own shovels and containers.
  • Maximum 60L (three, 5-gallon pails) per household
  • Tarp and secure loads when transporting.
  • Staff will be on site to direct traffic flow.
  • Limited quantities available

Learn more about how to use your compost. 

 

The compost provided for the compost giveaway is created from post-consumer source sorted organics and the City of Regina makes no representations or warranties with respect to the compost. Through an independent test lab the compost is tested for quality before distribution. The compost being supplied meets the required standards.

 

People using the compost have the responsibility to inspect any material before taking possession of it.  By taking possession of any material from the Compost Giveaway, you acknowledge the City of Regina will not be liable for any damages or injuries that may occur, and you waive any claims that may arise as a result.
